We experience a lot of types of attacks ("education/research network" = "easy hacker target"). With DDoS incidents, it seems we are more often an unknowing/unwilling participant than the target, partly due to owning big chunks of IP address space.
Universities are hacker training grounds, but also have much better network security response than most corporate networks. Whatever problems you have, the rest of us will have soon enough it may just take us longer to notice it.
Has anyone tried this kind of an approach or any other type of automated/efficient approach to dampen the "zombie" side of the DDoS attack?
Has anyone implemented Bellovin's Pushback in a production network yet?
